Impulse buy. Impulse buy. Impulse buy. We all know what those are--items strategically placed by the checkout line, so as you wait, you stare, as you stare, you read, as you read, you crave, as you crave, you grab, as you grab, you buy, as you buy, you take home only to find yourself asking 'why did I buy this?!'
Well folks, that is news of the past. Let @traderjoeslist tell you something, impulse buys at Trader Joe's are not based in corporate greed, they are based in YOU smiling. Let's do the 6-step process described above using Dark (or Milk) Chocolate Crisps: step 1 of impulse you wait (the checker-outer is a cutie, huh?) /step 2 you stare...so far so good (no one minds staring at chocolate)/step 3 you read--read what? thin, curved waves of Belgian chocolate with crunchy bits, okay YUM/step 4 you grab (now there's no turning back)/step 5 item purchased (safely secured in your bag)/step 6 take home and immediately try this dark chocolate haven that resembles a potato chip with an identity crisis. NOW, this is generally the point you sigh and think 'why did I buy this'--right? NOPE, with this treat, you think, why did I buy only one box?! (Yes, the extra large exclamation point is needed). Next time you're in the check-line challenge yourself to the 6-step impulse buy at Trader Joe's. We promise you will smile : )
Call me skinny, but how happy are you that 12 of these identity crisis chocolates round out to about 200 calories?

These are delicious - like Pringles without the annoying dehydrated potato dust.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I'm seriously eating these right now..... YUM!
ReplyDeleteI think I could live off of these.... well, at least a box a day... Where can you buy these in Honolulu, Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteI keep them in the fridge. Super yummy cold...
ReplyDeleteugh I did the exact same thing! I keep them in the fridge as well and they are a-mazing!
ReplyDeleteOh for the love of God, how could TJ's do this to us? Chocolate is not meant to be eaten like potato chips. Come to think of it, potato chips should not be eaten like potato chips, let alone at all. So maybe... just one more.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, we don't have a Trader Joes in Hawaii. You can get it on ebay for $6.99 plus $4.50 shipping to Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteAre they like Pringles, salty? Or are they a "cookie" or simply highly fragile chocolate slices?
